    	Ok. Yes there is, and it works fine. Apparently that's not a problem now. My mistake, sorry.

    	I know the evils of Wizzing a pre-existing programmer :) I was trying to create new characters for this.
    What confused me is that under LambdaCore I use '@set #NNN.wizard to 1'. Under JHC you get the message 'please
    use :set_wizard(); for this'. However there doesn't seem to BE a :set_wizard verb anywhere. Not on the utils,
    core objects that I looked at, or on $wiz. Eventually I DID follow the procedure above, and I think everything is
    working fine.

    	Anyone have any ideas on the 3rd point? Why #2 can't seem to get permission to alter the membership
    roster of committee objects?
